    hey man. but do you think Lewis could have stopped Prime Tyson's head movement say against the Spinks version/ Did you see the Berbick fight. Tyson ducked so low to the ground his lips touched the canvas and he made Berbick look stupid.

    Lennox Lewis just don't have the skill set to deal with Prime Tyson's head movement. Nobody does.
    That's like asking can a tiger defeat a Matrix ******? The answer is no.

    Lewis, very easily too.

    Would dictate the match with his jabs, clinch, jab, clinch, right hand.

    Tyson dies in there like he did in 2002.

    But that was the plan Trevor Berbick implemented against Prime Tyson. Did you see the Berbick vs Tyson fight? Tyson bob and weaved so low to the ground his lips touch it and he made Berbick look stupid?
    Do you think Lewis could have dealt with Prime Mike's head movement? Lennox was slow as molasses and twice as thick. Tyson's head movement was like sugar Coke.

    Ya but I'm saying is it hypotically posisble for Tyson to bob and weave the jab of Lewis? I notice sometimes Lennox flick the jab out against guys like Frazier and Tua and Mercer. Tyson was much faster than Mercer-Tua-Frazier and had insane head movement. What are the percentage chance of Tyson slipping the jabs with his head movement? Did you see the Tyson vs Berbick fight? Tyson ducked so low his lips touched the ground and he made Berbick look stupid. Lennox was a great fighter but Lewis was slow as molasses and twice as thick.

    How much of an impact do you think Tyson's head movement plays into beating Lewis? 50% or 100%?

    Lewis kills any version of Tyson with ease, Tyson never beat a great fighter in his life.
